Yo-Kai Watch 2 Launching September 30 For North America

Level-5's mischevious Yo-Kai are making a return engagement on 3DS this fall.

Yo-Kai Watch 2: Bony Spirits and Fleshy Souls versions will hit in stores and on the 3DS eShop this fall to coincide with season 2 of the anime and a new line of toys. Nate/Natalie will grab an upgraded watch and a whole new set of Yo-Kai, including some that are exclusive to one of the versions.

The first Yo-kai Watch was moderately entertaining. I heard that the sequel was much improved, so I'm looking forward to this. Perhaps this will properly jumpstart the phenomenon in the US. If not, it'll be a good appetite-whetter until Pokemon Sun and Moon come out in November.
